I love listening to Freddie's ridiculous stories. I would listen to a podcast of Freddie just telling stories

Carter Alt

How do you feel about the new CoC Peachyville Horror? Personally, I'm loving it!!

Caleb Crawford

super late on this but just wanna say i loved beth’s NY accent and kept mimicking it to myself after she said lines

I never listened through the last 7 min of this episode and for over a year now I have been missing out on the golden "Pobody's Nerfect" from Will Campos. I now know what I've been missing all along

George

Coming back to a talking dad from the past. The spoken bweh being gone is noticeable

james Burnett

Freddy in raccoon city

Morgan Dixon

It's funny as someone who lives in rural Washington to hear the "city boys" get scared. I've gone a couple days without seeing other cars on the road, weird rednecks and wild animals are a daily occurrence

Freddys story made my skin crawwwl

Maddi Day

So wait. This was recorded during season 1? Wild

Daniel Roberts

I apparently need to rewatch the Donald Sutherland remake of Bodysnatchers cause the original is one of my favorite movies and I hated the remake. Also, Eternal Darkness being one of Matt's favorite games makes so much sense and I couldn't stop thinking about that game while listening to this series.

Musical songs and video game ost's is how I survived a nonstop 12 hours road trip

George

I fucking LOVED that Pixar trailer. I experience a great deal of nostalgia listening to the music and watching the hand drawn animations before the cut to Wall-E

George

I would love Kidz Bop D&Daddies so I can listen with my kids one day

Ross Jordan

Musicals really are the goat for combatting road fatigue. Even better if you sing along. Name me one person who’s ever fallen asleep while belting Good Morning Baltimore

In my opinion I don't think Robbie's final act with the box was a futile one. If the director had opened it on his next turn, I imagine the Doodler would have been released inside the building and consumed everything and everyone in it. By jumping out of the window and summoning it outside instead, Robbie gave Stud the opportunity to snap out of his stupor and banish it from a safe distance.

I loved the scary stories!!

Tim Dionne

In the main series, I agree. But in this one, because so very much of it is psychological and visual horror based, I think that having all of the sound design really helps me personally get into the headspace the characters are meant to be in. Going from the unsettling gooey sticky horror sounds to the nice beach sounds and peacefulness Robert went to when his mind broke was a great beat to me, and it definitely sets aside this bonus stylistically from the main series for me

Matt, I hear you when you say Eternal Darkness is one of your favorite games. It's my favorite, too, and I'm sad it hasn't gotten more love and attention.

Luna Puma Skooma Tooma

I think less is more with sound design, at least in these series. When Power Word Kill is used in S1 it's very dramatic because there's pretty much no other sound effects played during the campaign which makes it that much more dramatic.

One thing about this series that I just adored so deeply was the Music and sound design and I really loved hearing about it! Seriously the strings when Robert died and when stuff got to much it was so haunting and all encompassing. It worked really well!

freddys story is creepy to this day

jizz likely

I’m so with you

Percival Funk

The Stamplers having a direct link to facing the Doodler and the inter generational horror aspect that Matt mentioned hit different this far into Season 2.

Melissa Henderson

it really wwas the coolest thing

meikoisasleep

If I were Freddie, I would think I was on a prank show lol

Oren Tuchman

I loved your CoC mini series but I have to say that the drive up story and Freddy's story in the first few minutes of this ep were 800x scarier

GM

Wait, by Cabin Pressure do you mean John Finnemore's Cabin Pressure? Because, if so, I love him

Vinisa

Can i get that joker comic as an mbic please

Harrison Lee

it was before

Pumpkin Duke

was this before or after oak lore?

faerie.fkr

Yea thanks! Done!

Dungeons and Daddies

Should this have the amod tag at the very least? So folks can find it after listening to the episodes?

Brianna M

Is there any way for you guys to re-release all 3 episodes together? I just joined and I can’t find them

Valentina Gomez

idk if this has been said before but what if the purple robes are some of the grandparents.........

Jamie Advincula

Dear God, that would be amazing. Gotta go with the grandbabies, though. Don't wanna force the crew to RP as characters that Anthony made up.

Christopher Pete

Loved this! Would love for you guys to do a Cyberpunk 2020 one shot someday!

Nick Gorman

Cyberpunk 2020 for the Dad’s descendants for the next mini series please.

Nick Welfare

Is there anyway we can note why we're patrons? I want to indicate that I exclusively love the horror content.

Rick Sanchez

This series was absolutely amazing. I would love another foray into CoC with this group.

Robert Stoffel

I live at the base of the mountain where lake Arrowhead is and that road can be super scary at times!

Joseph Lord

I need a paranormal podcast from you guys!
